2012 ICI Meeting
ICI Meeting 2012 – Innovations in Cardiovascular Interventions is due to take place from December 2-4, 2012 in Tel Aviv, Israel, overlooking the shores of the Mediterranean Sea.
Last year's meeting was a huge success, but this year promises to be even better. With a team of international key speakers and leading experts, you will experience live thematic case presentations to demonstrate the impact of the latest innovations in cardiovascular intervention technologies and therapies. There will be special attention paid to the future of valvular interventions and investigations into treating cardiac valvular pathology using percutaneous techniques or combined surgical and interventional pathways. There will also be discussions on industry-academia, emerging technologies and the regulations of new devices.
Furthermore, ICI 2012 will be focusing on the novel segment of the medical world – the E-Health and Mobile Health Evolution and Revolution (alternatively - IT and wireless medicine). ICI 2011 touched lightly upon this subject in the parallel session dubbed “IT meets MT” and spoke about the fact that although Israel is a known innovative powerhouse and international development center for Medical technologies, IT solutions and the ever growing industry of Mobile Applications, the industries have yet to converge due to many reasons.
In ICI 2012, we will try to bring those two huge industries together, by bringing you some of the best key note speakers in the world, to speak about the convergence of those two industries, near and far future and trends, the regulatory arena and the latest innovations in IT and Mobile Apps in the medical world in general and Cardiovascular Interventions in particular.
